Hawkley Hurst

Hawkley Hurst is a mansion built in 1861 by Teulon, in a Cotswold style. It has been converted into flats. The walls are sandstone, incorporating ashlar and snecked polygonal detailing, with dressings in Bath stone. Features include finials, kneelers, smooth flush bands, double-chamfered mullions and transoms, and a plinth. The roof is steeply pitched, tiled, with hipped dormers, and prominent stacks.

The south elevation is symmetrical, with gabled projections on either side, and a central two-story porch with a parapet. It has two storeys and an attic, and a window arrangement of 1.1.1.1.1 bays. The windows are predominantly mullioned, featuring two, four, and five lights, and also four and five lights with transoms. Beneath a moulded canopy on brackets, there is a Tudor arched doorway, extended at each side above smaller windows.

The east range features three gables of unequal width, two above slight projections, and one associated with a massive stepped stack. Windows here are mullioned with two, three, four, and seven lights, and also two, six, and seven lights with transoms.

The shorter west range is characterised by windows grouped within an angled bay, with a window on each side, all beneath a deep parapet.

The north side of the building angles around the entrance forecourt. A projection on the west side contains the doorway, which has a Perpendicular arch in a moulded frame. A deep recess contains a mullioned and transomed staircase window of twenty lights. A circular turret with a conical roof and descending lancet windows serves as a staircase.

At the north end of the building are three single-story service wings, with varying forms but consistent stone walls, hipped tile roofs, and mullioned windows.
